In a high-mobility construction environment, it’s common for companies to post workers from other EU/EEA countries to Dutch sites. But what seems like a simple cross-border arrangement can create complex compliance risks — from missed notifications to unverified A1s and wage underpayment.

This webinar will unpack exactly what it means to “post” a worker into the Netherlands. We’ll explore legal obligations under the WagwEU, how to correctly submit Posted Worker Notifications, what to look for in A1 Certificates, and how to avoid missteps that can lead to fines, stop-work orders, or WKA liability.

This session is tailored for operational leads, compliance teams, HR managers, and subcontractors working in Dutch infrastructure, construction, and industrial projects. Expect real examples, practical checklists, and a chance to ask your questions live.
